For the starter topic, I'm grabbing a post from last thread that really caught my interest but didn't generate much discussion: does the distinction between an "idol" and a "cute performer" lie in idol culture? Aka, "The use of calls, wotagei, the relationship between fan and performer, chekis, badges, etc. at events, a combination of singing and dancing, the types of personalities of members, and more. There’s a lot of components that go into calling a person or a genre 'idol'". Do you agree with this? If not, what do you define as an idol, and how can overseas performers reach to meet that definition?

For me an idol has to do two of two things right away
>sing and/or dance
>be themselves
If you’re simply singing or dancing as a preexisting character, it’s essentially cosplaying or just being a coverist. It’s one thing if you are a character you’ve created or someone else has created that you’re cast as, but that also has its limits and is a different story. I don’t believe things like having music or special costumes or events is important right away because you need a base to support you. If you have good stage presence and audience interaction, people will want to follow you. To do all this everyone needs to seriously practice the way actual idols do.

I agree with this. And I think if we are using the closest definition of Japanese idols(And even kpop), then wotagei and the relationship between the audience and the performer is important. You also are aiming to be something to be idolized, which goes without saying, but I see so many idols who get into this genre just hoping for a quick name to fame and not actually serving passion into what they do. Should we police why someone is getting into such a hobby? We can't really, but I think there are definitely qualities and/or things an idol does that make someone as an 'idol' a lot more worthy of the title. And that is shown through clear hard work and a desire to improve and not just settle for 'good enough'.

Even if you don’t post them publicly, if they post online I’d like to see them.

Speaking of smaller communities though, once I left my old state all of a sudden a bunch of groups started popping up and I got really upset that none existed when I was there. I’d like to start something where I am but unsure about it.

That’s not even a mixing issue that’s straight up not being able to hold a note and pitching.

I really wish people in this community would practice singing more if you’re going to sing. I rather have people just dance if dancing is their strong point or just singing if that’s your tea. Practice the other.

This was pretty cute, their singing sounded alright as a chorus, and the dancing was mostly cute, some of them looked awkward in the group but fine solo or vice versa though.

As the anon who brought up American accents + Japanese pronunciation giving overseas idols a certain sound, I realize most have this sound even when they sing in English... which is to be expected I guess.

How do you all feel about the new COPPA/FTC related content creator issue? Do you think netidol/odottemita falls into made for kids or not made for kids?

I think it’s oversimplifying the situation a bit. For one, I think it depends on what kind of content they’d make overall. A lot of idols go for the cuter side, which would be okay for kids. For someone like Jazi, it’d probably be not for kids. But if you have a mix of content, then that’s also the reason why YouTube has the option for individual videos vs a whole channel. I only see someone getting in trouble if they don’t tag a video properly or if an over protective parent comes in and sees something that wasn’t what their kid was watching.

I didn’t say it needed to be perfect, but at this point most of the individuals there should be able to hold a note. (As most of them as far as I’m aware has been in this community for a year)

If you’re going to collab, make a well thought out video with others you should be able to hold the same notes. That’s not asking for much that’s basic middleschool choir shit.

Live stuff on a stage I’m extremely forgiving and that’s fine no matter how the singing and dancing is however, if you’re making a music video I’m not. They can learn how to hold a basic notes and tone adjust, the bar shouldn’t be set so low for recording music videos.

Julily posted about her graduation as an idol in 2020 to focus on be
coming an artist. I feel like she has been one of the overseasidol "idols" that people looked to as an example and/or figure head for the community. Also why she is so harshly judged and ridiculed for her behavior and opinions. Now that she is hanging up her idol hat, what do you think this means for the community?

Upon her previous hiatus and step down from the overseasidol CEO position, it seemed activity in the idol community plummeted. As did the management on 4chan. Do you think other idols will follow her lead now that one of the figureheads have graduated? Or do you think the community will stay the same?

Artist as in art or artist as in musician? I looked at the post but it wasn’t clear. I’m assuming art like painting, drawing, etc though? I’ve never seen anything besides her music but I’m excited to see what it brings!

I don’t think the activity halted because she resigned but because she was realistically one of the only ones who really motivated people. I think a few might follow her but it’s unlikely too many will. 7 years is a long time and I feel a few are in it for the long run and others just until they find something else.

The community is for sure in for a big change, but that now solely depends on who’s in it especially with people like Mosuri & a few others I can’t think of right now. If someone really amazing comes along, I do think it can shake things up.

Cherry posted a new video explaining her experience with Dream Stage. And basically, when she asked for a 90 minute time slot, she didn't think that was also including the set up and take down. Plus, they started late due to tech issues, so that's why they were urged to wrap up the show without finishing.
But, she will still continue with doing the event again next year and has new ideas for the next Dream Stage.

I’m glad to see that there’s some choreography. As far as I can tell, their pronunciation is okay and I’m glad they made an effort to sing in Japanese. I do think they need to work on the song some more if they’re switching between their voices (head voice, chest, and falsetto). They were fine until the chorus which means it’s too high for them.

I do wonder if Julily will stay in Vivacu though. She’s no longer going to be an idol next year and that’s basically what the group is.

So it's only been recently that I'm checking on these boards again and I'd like to clear up this accusation. When the OIC website went online for the 1st year, all of the funds for that were paid out of pocket by me - which includes domain and hosting services. As for the 2nd (and 3rd year coming up), I created a gofundme campaign and received donations from the general public to continue keeping the website up. Nyaru had no part in any of the funding for the website as that was my responsibility so please do not make claims like that if you don't have anything to back it up with.

Formerly Mondai Society as they used to be one of the founders of OIC back in its former days. The person who ran it did tell me ahead of time that they were willing to donate that much. The gofundme page is still up if you would like to check who donated. Also, just want to apologize for saying "Nyaru had no part in any of the funding for the website" as I meant to clarify that she had no part in being in CHARGE of the funding*. I had full control and take full responsibility for where the funds went to and all of it did go into the website since hosting (siteground) & domain services (namecheap) cost approx $400 for a 2 year life span. Hope that clears up this.

I just want to say Monday Society was a pretty new thing when it happened. It happened maybe a year or two ago and a few soloists were under them. If you haven’t been around long then you wouldn’t remember but most people in the community do. They offered help with management, promotion, and like Julily said composition. They were even going to have an idol group. It was legitimate and the person running it wasn’t a fake or someone looking for a quick buck. It was really a startup much like any other big agency or OIC.

Scrolling though Instagram and found a group based in NYC called Phobia that’s holding auditions for members. The concept is pocchari idols and one of their requirements is that you have to be size X or above. Now I’m all for body positivity, but groups like this in Japan and SK have not done well for two reasons.
>it’s a strange concept to base a group around weight
>members worked so hard they lost so much weight
You can achieve the same ideas without having all your members be plus size. This is coming from someone that is plus size. It’s a bad idea.

I send friend requests to people that I don't know well maybe because I want to be friends with them? I try to network with others simply because I like making connections with others. I don't do it to be "sneaky" and I have no reason to hold an ulterior motive.

I like this idea because fat girls are hot. I like plus size idols because I think they’re really attractive and am gonna support a group full of women I find attractive, just like the pocha idol groups in Japan I support. Beyond that, groups based around one body type is better than having extreme body diversity that might be hard to design costumes for or can single out certain members for ridicule by comparison. There’s nothing wrong with a physical appearance gimmick, it attracts people like me who like those kinds of things.

Unfortunately, your thoughts are among the minority. It’d be great if everyone was welcoming to overseas plus size idols. I’ve seen on here where an idol could be extremely talented but people have degraded them because they weren’t stick thin. I do think there’s a fundamental issue when a whole group resolves around physical appearance. I do want to see what they do and how they profess but I worry this concept will be a hinderance.

Nah see I actually like this idea. When I was in a LL group I was one of two fat ones, and honestly the size difference doesn't look great in pictures. And if the members all get fitter and lose weight, good for them, they can be a regular group after that.

I mean, I agree that they may have limited mainstream appeal but let's be honest, no idol group really does and I think what they lose in "ew fatties" they'll gain in body positivity fans.

Anonymous Wed Nov 27 06:26:42 2019 No.10296103

>>10296092
I think that if you have a good sense of rhythm and eye for detail in dancing, you can still make good covers. I see many self taught dancers make quality covers. But formal teaching definitely helps with attuning you to your own movements, and how to approach learning dances, as well as building your general technique.
Basically I don't consider them necessary if you're naturally talented at dancing, but they will help you improve no matter what level you are, and it can't hurt to try!

Anonymous Wed Nov 27 07:21:22 2019 No.10296113

>>10296092

No it's not necessary, but if you did it'd also depend if the style of dance you learn formally goes hand in hand with what you plan to cover.

I took ballroom classes for some years and when I eventually got into covers I noticed a lot of stuff transferred because of the different styles I learned which definitely gave me an edge over my peers. It also meant I could teach the members in my group if they struggled with something.

It also teaches you the basics like how to 'dance big', finishing your movements and thus mastering timing to make sure you don't look sloppy or rushed. Also how to characterise songs with your face can be a huge asset.

Ultimately it depends on your eye for detail. I notice a lot of people who pick the first dance cover that shows up on youtube and learn from that without checking if the people covering it are garbage. If you learn from trashy technique, you're doing to have trashy technique and if there are more of you and the dancers aren't in sync there is no hope for you.

>>10296092
There is such thing as dancing incorrectly. You can hurt your back and feet from improper movements and landings. Its best to either take a class or two in something like hip hop to learn basics or at least research on your own. Your body isn't worth an injury over a dance. Otherwise, take classes because you want to improve your abilities and skillsets. You can be a natural already but it never hurts to hone skills down. Good luck anon!

I think it's a personal preference. I enjoy more of a dance shot because I like to see the skill and practice the dancers put in. You can hide a lot of that with fancy editing. Especially if you're doing a complicated dance, I like a good dance shot.
As for the multi-shot videography with close ups and what not, I think it can come off really cringey to watch depending if the performers know how to act or know how to organize a set and use a camera.

Since you’re a duo it’s a lot easier to pick out places you’re not synchronized, I would recommend spending more time together, if possible, going over how each of you does a move so that you can match up your movements better!
Also I’d try scouting for better recording locations, the outfits stick out so much and makes the already drab background look worse. I know it can be hard to find cute places to record but maybe try making connections with some store owners or something. Or you could make some simple decorations to go on a blank wall. I think just about anything would’ve been better than the location you went with.
I like the energy and the outfits though! Keep it up.

She did start Mosuri, I don't think it's that uncommon for leaders/founders to graduate. But she mentioned in the post she was moving out of the area come next year. So I guess it's better to just go ahead and graduate than to suddenly announce it whenever she moves next year.

Though, I do wonder who will be the new leader? Pengy seems like a good fit? Interested in seeing the direction the group goes after Calina leaves considering she was the glue that kept them together, and made all the costumes, too.

I feel like she's always been one of those idols who would just do better on her own instead of with a group. And I feel like while mosuri may be able to stay afloat for a little while, it will sizzle out. I feel like Calina gave it most of it's appeal.

I REALLY like Aidoru Janai, I think they have great stage appeal, costumes, and present themselves very well. Their singing isn't perfect by any means, and I feel like Emma and Brizza are the only ones who really sound good when speaking/singing in Japanese (the other girls just have really thick spanish accents coming through). Overall, I think they're an incredibly solid group though. I always like seeing their videos.

>>10298927
Yeah, I fear this too anon. Calina put in a lot of work into Mosuri, and without her I'm not sure they'll be able to stick together long enough without her. I do agree she is just one of those idols who do better performing solo.

Somewhat related, do you anons think there's no appeal in performing solo? There really aren't a ton of soloists in this hobby right now. I think idol shows like lovelive or imas have really pushed the "group" narrative a bit heavily and nobody really likes to perform solo anymore. It's all "auditions for xyz idol group" on instagram.

I don't think necessarily it's that people don't want to perform solo, rather than feeling like they won't be given as much opportunities to do so. Being in a group gives you a higher amount of appeal to an audience and venues. It makes a bigger show. And also, most people just find it more enjoyable to partake in idol activities with others rather than alone. It's really hard to motivate yourself and build an audience as a soloist.

As a soloist, I can personally say that I don't really get much opportunity to perform as a soloist.

Now does that mean I deserve it? No. There could be a million reasons why I don't get picked when I apply for showcases, but I usually see maybe 4 soloists in a showcase at any given time.

There is also the chance that not many soloists feel comfortable being on stage yet either....
Also,I bet a lot of these groups end up forming probably to help combat stage fright. Think about it, it's a lot easier to perform if you have people doing it with you!

Why is it so hard to make friends in the idol community? It feels like the only way to meet people is to be in an idol group with them, not that it's easy to find idol groups to join either.

I think the community lacks diversity in soloists. Everyone is going for a cute image and nobody has a super amazing voice, so it’s kind of boring. I think it’s off putting to those who want to do a more mature solo act.

I mean, I get the frustration. You look for people who you think will be a good fit for you and be at your current level. Then when you actually work with them, you get disappointed by how much you have to actually train them and they weren't what you expected. When you're a perfectionist and control freak like Calina is I know that must have been upsetting for her to find out, but you definitely don't just put out a tweet where anyone (including the member) can find it.

Starstruck really are currently one of the worst notable idol groups out there, more than half of the members have years of experience. there’s no excuse for them to be this cringey, out dated, and bad.

Idk where that post went talking about StarStruck but I agreed with it. Idk why it was removed. It was a valid opinion even if worded harshly. They seem to focus too much on quantity of content rather than the quality of it and building actual skill.

Do you guys find the fact that Stastruck only sings in english contributes to their cringey-ness? Or do you think it’s just their skill levels? I felt it especially in their Luvoratory cover, that’s a song that just doesn’t work well in english at all and it really showed.

Honestly I think I find their singing cringey more than the language. There are plenty of good utaitte/coverists who do English covers, they need to get some decent translyrics for a start and then probably change their intonation etc. to suit the song. That said Japanese is relatively easy to sing and I'm not sure why some people choose to sing in English except maybe to attract a wider audience?

>>	Anonymous Fri Dec 6 09:00:53 2019 No.10300832 >>10300777 I think maybe it's the fact that they're english speakers with an english speaking audience and want them to understand the song. From what I've seen, a couple different idols do the same so that's what I understood was the reason.

Practicing music is about memorization, but performing it is about conveying your feelings. I don't blame anyone for wanting to connect with their audience in a language they both understand. But it can still be done poorly - some Japanese songs have a cadence that doesn't mesh well with English translyrics. Starstruck's latest cover was a strong example of that. It's also important to write lyrics that don't just fill in the melody, but work in the cadence of English with stresses on the right syllables and in the right part of the sentences, that still convey the meaning of the original song. It definitely isn't an easy task so I think it can be as impressive to pull off good English translyrics as to just memorize the sounds in Japanese.

I may not be able to escape it fully but I truly believe it’s way better than the American community as a whole.

Teya falls under the latter and she has a history and rep within the community.

For me, I don't really care how much skill you have, if you're gonna be an asshole (and not the petty drama we get among the overseas idols, I'm talking just flat out balls to the wall bullshit that gets you your own lolcow thread separate from the idol one) then you lose your appeal.

No because outside of this “community” my friendships are fine and strong. At first I chalked it all up to most of the people in the community being young but than I found out some members are older than I am and acting like literal children.

Nobody can just genuinely support one another outside of their circle jerks, I stand by that. Somebody starts getting a bit of traction and popularity the same people who used to uplift one another change their tune. I don’t expect it to be rainbows and people bending backwards for another...but like I didn’t expect this.

People using each other, back stabbing, insecurities so high they can’t just be happy for people doing well. If you’re not kissing someone’s ass in a circle jerk good luck being accepted. The community parades itself from accepting new people, supporting members finally getting their break, and overall trying to have an image of innocent sweet kindness but it’s the exact opposite.

Not the same anon but I had to comment on the autism.

Ariana is not even close to the biggest pop star today. Even singers who started out in pop and transitioned to more R&B are still ranked higher than her. You really don’t pay attention to the music industry at all huh anon?

With that out the way. Stop comparing people in the idol community to professional singers in the industry. The fans that Chris brown and Arianna has are COMPLETELY different.

The idol community is small and for the most part everyone is fans of eachother there’s no forum on reddit dedicated to idols posted in this form with stans. The community is small and people talk yes you can be black listed I feel like that’s common sense.

As someone who did formal training for quite a few years, it's definitely assisted me in idol dancing. Not only did it teach me the necessary skills for basic things like turns or jumps or rhythm, I also pick up dances a lot quicker than other members in my group who haven't had the training.

No, it isn't necessary, but it's definitely helpful imo. I feel like I can always personally tell who's had training and who hasn't, and those who do tend to look better overall in their refinement and sharpness of their movements.

Agreed. I didn't even take a full year of dance but just a class that was offered in my high school. I didn't develop the sharpness and technique more experienced dancers have, but it introduced me to the mindset that dancers have when they choreograph and learn dances. Now I'll always learn a dance while analyzing the lyrics so I can understand the intention behind each movement rather than thinking it's cute poses for the sake of looking cute.

obviously japanese idols put a lot of effort into having a higher, more cutesy voice to an extent. but i really do think that most western women just don’t have that same physical capacity to learn it. when overseas idols try to sing in a high pitch they ultimately sound like a dog whistle if I’m being honest. no personality, no unique qualities, just a constant high pitched noise that hurts my ears especially when multiple people are singing with that same style.
I just wonder that if it truly is all about training and practice, then why do overseas idols constantly sound awful singing/speaking in higher pitches voices? guess the easy answer is they don’t try hard enough but idk if that’s all there is to it.
i wish more overseas idols would realize that if you can’t learn to emulate the cutesy voice properly, just don’t sing in that way. develop your own technique and style that fits your voice.

Being from the west have nothing to do with it. That’s simple voice training which is applied to singing and voice training. Voice types and vocal ranges obviously should be taken into account but I haven’t seen anyone so deep that they couldn’t do a basic cute voice if that’s what they really wanted. They just don’t research or practice.Will everyone have to focal range of Mariah if they ~just practice~, hell no but a lot of idols could do a basic cute voice. It will be just average and nothing special but it’s achievable.

Like you said tho, a vast majority of overseas idol don’t try or at least tailor their image to fit what they can bring to the table. It’s so unique to the idol community too.

Basic learning skills seem to be like a repellent. “Veterans” in the community still can’t do basic pitch matching, that the equivalent of a cosplayer not measuring themselves before cutting a pattern.

Because of training and practice. You answered your own question. Not only that, but western music training focuses a lot more on what works in the west which is deeper, more clear and or sultry voices. There’s a reason some Japanese singers sound like they’re straining and it’s because the lessons are very different.

The editing is so bad. There's so many cuts everywhere that have no underlying motivation other than to show a different angle because it looks good(?).

I'm going to get really in depth into this for no reason so don't mind me...

The PV opens up with a horrible montage that goes so fast for no reason. If the cuts lined up to the music, It would have looked better. I feel like it lingered on meotashi a little too long, but that's my personal taste. The handheld camera is accentuated by how fast the cuts are and looks vomit inducing. Plus, they're all framed differently in each shot with majority having their heads crammed up near the top of the frame. It's hard to stay focused on their faces when they're moving all over the place in each cut. Bear in mind, we're only 12 seconds in...

The close up shots of Kanata's skirt and the boots really slog the placing. It's like they didn't have any footage there so they just inserted some random shots that look "cool."

The wide shot of them all dancing shows so much of the ground for some reason. I don't know why they couldn't just tilt the camera to show more of the building. The dancing is bad but I'm just here to criticize the camera work.

The three closeups of the groups of three just look bad. The first two shots had a consistent angle but the third one was totally off. I wouldn't have shot those angles in a different location personally, especially since the framing looks so poor.

Random closeup shots? Why?

After that point the PV gets better but more likely because we've now become accustomed to the erratic, nonsensical editing of this PV. The cut in footage does nothing to tell a story, but rather serves as gratuitous footage to show off costumes and give meotashi, diet shampoo, and erika face time.

And why is the thank you for watching slide at the end so dang long?

All in all, whoever is editing and shooting their videos is incompetent, but anyone can see that.

Nyart but it feels like there is a talent drain for western cover dancers as they dont have talented and people with potential doing jpop and idol covers. Instead we are left with scraps coupled with a reluctance to practice or cover other genres for an audience and inspiration.

The first LL group and Sweet Supernova were good. The boy group has been improving, at least. Mosuri is campy in a cute way. The rest of the LL groups were painfully forgettable and sloppy.

Auracle stole the show. They were amazing, definitely improved from their Metrocon performance. Mystic Wish was good in terms of dancing, but their vocals were not great. Hopefully next year has better groups if they're going to shove so much Love Live down everyone's throats.

Auracle and Sweet Supernova are superb! They must have been amazing to watch live/in person. Mosuri have great charm but I'm also not a fan of their original song, musically it's just not my cup of tea. Mystiq wish's was more up my alley and in general they seem solid but not as confident as the first two mentioned.

I think most of the cover groups have some strong dancers in them that can hold attention but if a few people look lost then the whole performance appears unpolished. I'm not sure if it's a lack of practicing together or nerves but it does let some of the better dancers down.

Aside from the weird backgrounds at times, HolMats idolfest looked pretty good this year.
I enjoyed Auracle and Sweet Super Nova's performances.
I see what Mosuri is going for, but personally found it to be too much.
Majika's video was kind of distracting.
I thought MW had solid choreo, but could use some vocal training.
IALC did as good as their usual.
You can tell Traid really tried this year but aside from the Gaku, I still think the other two look kind of akward in those roles.

A bit off topic, but what advice would you give to someone who practices much more than their other group members, but still ends up looking bad? I don't want to throw in the towel and say I'm unable to ever improve, but maybe I'm just not practicing efficiently?

Anonymous Tue Dec 17 10:53:52 2019 No.10306487

>>10306484
I wouldn't say you're not practicing efficiently exactly, more like effectively? If you're putting in the work but not seeing results, you might need tutoring/specific critique. I had this problem when I first started dancing because without proper training it was hard for me to understand what makes someone good at executing moves.

See if some of the better members in your group are willing to go through your routine with you and give you some unfiltered advice. Otherwise maybe look around for someone online or at a dance studio/school to give you some tips. As discussed earlier dance classes are good for everyone.

Remember that everyone learns at their own pace anon and good luck!

Gonna second what >>10306487 said, it's time to get some outside opinions. If you can spring it or find free dance classes, taking those would be a good idea too because any dance experience of any kind will affect your skills at cutesy idol bops. Also keep in mind that everyone is their own worst critic, and it may be harder for you to see improvement in yourself than for others to see it in you. Don't give up, and don't be afraid to ask for constructive criticism from people who are skilled at dance.

It’s funny how pressed you are about mosuri. As the others said, the comment that was deleted was about how we’re basically yellowfacing.

What is everyone’s opinions on idols doing “gravure”? I’m using the term lightly because they aren’t really doing gravure more than typical basic boudoir photography in their homes. Do you think it’s possible to do actual gravure? Do you think better location, styling, and photography and editing will make it closer to gravure? Right now they all just seem like sexual & nude photographs so I’m not a big fan.

I think a lot of westerners in this hobby seem to think it's closer to patreon-tier soft core porn than what it actually is. Some gravure is implied nudity but its not very sexual, either. If they'd made it more tasteful and had better styling/photography and overall more effort put into it then I think it could come out quite good.

I agree. I don’t want to call anyone out, but Jazi and Poppy for example. Jazi does photosets and it’s seems like a lot of it is just covered but nude. Poppy photographs but everything she does has large sexual overtones to it. It makes me uncomfortable because it is soft core porn. Cute or fun shots are one thing but straight sexy lingerie is weird especially when they’re trying to be idols.

Yeah I can see that. But also I support whatever they feel they want to do. Honestly, I wanna support the viewpoint that anyone can be an idol as long as they're working hard. Cause what may warrant idolizing for one person may be different for another. I know we're in the hobby to be closely related to Japanese pop idols, but I kinda like the idea of overseasidols taking their unique spins on it. Idk if that makes sense? Lol

I think that's a lot harder to find since you can do a lot remotely (composing music, editing videos, even designing and sewing costumes) but video and photographers have to be local. So a lot of people can only use the talent that's locally available. It would definitely help if you let us know what area you were in so people near you could recommend videographers.

Is there any particular reason Cherry can’t just post all her content on one channel like a normal person?

>Jazi
I have trouble listening to her sing because she’s rarely on key and can’t always a decent note, but I will say she always has good energy and stamina. I do wish she’d design for her body type more often clothes wise. Making the waist on her skirt a little higher would pull her costume together a lot better.

I understand that, but people post that content on the same channel. It’s not as if she’s actually speaking a different language in either. Her main channel seems to be primarily vlogs and some other stuff. I see that the Korean channel only had one video until a few days ago, but logically have 2 separate channels for the same type of content (dance and/or vocal covers) is just too much. The audiences do overlap, even if it doesn’t seem like it.

Tfw people don’t realize how obvious their vendettas come across when they post months old videos and then personally attack the same people on every single thread.
Tip: this is the boy who cried wolf and makes people start to ignore anything negative about them, especially when your posts stick out like a sore thumb in threads where we’re discussing recent releases and con crit and have to regularly post reminders that this thread can be deleted for bullying after the same posts show up. If you want to critic them, post a recent video and critic them. Don’t bump a thread that’s becoming inactive with videos arent all recent and scattered from the same group then bump the same topic when no one takes your bait.

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I think unless the members never look at this thread it’s unlikely it was self posted. Posting videos of every one of themselves without prefacing why they were looking at those videos is too obvious. Plus two of those videos were posted already so that would be really dumb. They’re not good, but every time they’re brought up the members are personally attacked with irrelevant cheap shots and yes people notice.

Maybe because they were aware of it. Maybe because someone told them quickly. It wasn’t immediate either. It was about 30-60 minutes. We get it though, you hate them.

Starstruck has so many real points to criticize. Please don’t distract from our actual discussion of what they can do to improve by making drama about self posting their bad content. It’s bad. Talk about why it’s bad.

After about a year, Vivacu released their first song. I’ll be honest, compared to the live video I’ve seen the actual recording is lackluster but I can’t tell if it’s simply because of mixing. In addition, the voices aren’t well mixed to each other or to the instrumental. I hope that later on it’ll be better. I was really excited and this is just kinda not what I was expecting.
